YORK.

Letters Patent No. 108,745, dated October 25, 1870.

The Schedule referred to these Letters Patent and making part-of the same.

To whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, HENRY E. Wonoorr, of the town of Elbridge, in the county of Onondaga and State of New York, have invented a new and useful Spring, and the mode of attaching the same, for-a lumberwagon, which consists of four pieces of rubber, one of each being placed upon each end of the two bolsters, the upper ends of the rubbers being sunken in bars which extend from stake to stake, and notching upon the same, and firmly secured by bolts, and upon which harsthe box of the wagon rests. The effect will be to lessen friction, thus prolonging the use and existence of the wagon. The noisy rattle, always a unisance, will be obviated. v

I would respectfully refer to the annexed drawing, which makes a part of this specification, to wit:

Figure 1 represents the longitudinal vertical section of wagon-box, cross-bar, spring, and bolster.

Figures 2- and 4 represent a transverse vertical section of the cups and springs.

Figures 3 and 5 represent a plan view of the cups and springs.

A represents the wagon-box.

B represents bolster over the front axle.

B represents bolster over the back axle.

0 represents bolt to secure the bolster and front axle together.

D represents the metal socket or cup which receives the wagon-box.

E represents the rubber spring over the front axle;

E represents the rubber spring over the back axles The combination of flanged and perforated rubber springs, secured, by means of bolts and nuts, to the sockets, and attached to the bolster and bed-plate,

substantially as described, for the purpose set forth.
